OMGWTFBBQ! I can't update!

I am trying to update a 1.50 PSP to 2.71 (It's not mine, I have my reasons

). I downloaded the update, and ran it. I looked through all of the features and stuff, and then exited because there were custom BGs set on the 1.50. I restored the originals, tricked the version back to 1.50, and restored the default settings so the PSP would appear to have been untouched by homebrew. I ran the update again. It started up, but on the Start screen, it showed "The update cannot be started. The data is corrupted." I redownloaded it with Network Update and I had the same problem. Do I have to update to 2.00 first to update to 2.71?

is this some sort of hate crime on whomevers psp it is

truly evil
anyway, if you really want(new devhook allows upto 2.5 full emulation, and umd support. and theyre working on 2.7, so there is no need) then i suggest updating to 2.00 first, doesnt make sense though

Nah, it's my sister's, and she doesn't use a lot of homebrew but is a loyal member to Newgrounds so she wants flash support. So I have to update to 2.00 before updating to 2.71?

One answer: don't update at all. If it were my sister, I would never let her do something like that (it's the equilivant of smashing the PSP into pieces.)

We have to respect peoples choices enough to let them to make that choice.
If somone has a 1.0 or 1.50 and wants to upgrade it full knowing what there doing, And im sure cheese's sister does, Then it is well within her choice to do that with her on psp.
As far as your question goes indian, Well I do know that once upon a time I upgraded mt 1.5 to 2.0 and it worked perfectly fine. So if thats the only way to do it, I would go that way with things and then update to 2.71

I have since then downgraded, And I cant really see myself ever upgradeing again. But im gonna get a mod chip when they become avalible anyway. So its all gravy.

Well, I did 1.50 > 2.00 > 2.71 and it worked without any problems. Except for 1 minor niggle: I like it so much, I am considering updating!

Yes, flash is the only thing that made me get a 2.70 PSP. It's great.

Maybe someday they will make a flash hack for 1.5

there's a flash homebrew app. but it's not polished yet...it's also a plugin inside the Fileassistant++ program...Same coder I guess, goes by 71M, Miemt71 or something like that.
